Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

SWIFT mailer
●
MIME message
●
Etc.
●
4. What is MIME?
Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions
●
Standards for sending E-mail messages
●
Defined by many RFC documents: Request
●
For Comments
New RFC document versions are compatible
●
with past versions
5. MIME message class
PHP class to compose and send e-mail
Sends messages with text and HTML using
●
any character set
Embeds related files: images, CSS, etc..
●
May attach multiple files
●
Optimized for sending newsletters to many
●
recipients
6. Text message
require('email_message.php');
$m = new email_message_class;
$m->SetEncodedHeader('Subject', 'This is the subject');
$m->SetEmailEncodedHeader('From', 'john@here.com', 'John');
$m->SetEmailEncodedHeader('To', 'joe@there.com', 'Joe');
$text = “Hello Joe,nnThis is the message.”;
$m->AddQuotedPrintableTextPart($text);
$m->Send();
7. HTML message
$html =
“<html><head><title>Messagm</title></head><body>Hello
Joe,<br />n<br />nThis is the message.</body></html>”;
$text = strip_tags($html);
$m->CreateQuotedPrintableHTMLPart($html, '', $h);
$m->CreateQuotedPrintableTextPart($text, '', $t);
$alternatives = array($t, $h);
$m->AddAlternativeMultipart($alternatives);
$m->Send()
9. Message with attached files
$attachment=array(
'Data'=>'This is an attachment called attachment.txt',
'Name'=>'attachment.txt',
'Content-Type'=>'automatic/name',
'Disposition'=>'attachment',
);
$m->AddFilePart($attachment);
$attachment=array(
'FileName'=>'attachment.zip',
'Content-Type'=>'automatic/name',
'Disposition'=>'attachment',
);
$m->AddFilePart($attachment);
$m->Send();
10. Sending via SMTP
Supports several types of authentication using
the SASL classes: LOGIN, MD5, NTLM, etc.
require('sasl.php'); require('smtp.php');
require('smtp_message.php');
$m = new smtp_message_class;
$m->smtp_host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
$m->smtp_port = 465;
$m->smtp_ssl = 1;
$m->smtp_user = 'some_user';
$m->smtp_password = 'some_password';
$m->direct_delivery = 0;
11. Sending via sendmail, qmail
and Microsoft Exchange
Faster delivery to the MTA queue
require('sendmail_message.php');
$m = new sendmail_message_class;
$m->delivery_mode = SENDMAIL_DELIVERY_DEFERRED;
require('qmail_message.php');
$m = new qmail_message_class;
require('pickup_message.php');
$m = new pickup_message_class;
12. Mail() function alternatives
When the mail() function does not work well
smtp_mail()
●
sendmail_mail()
●
qmail_mail()
●
urgent_mail()
●
13. The path of the messages
Local SMTP Local queue Destination queue
SMTP Pickup
PHP script MTA Destination SMTP
mail()
Direct
14. The best delivery methods
1.Drop a message file in the local queue
2.Pass to MTA with the mail function (sendmail)
3.Pass to the local SMTP server
4.Direct delivery to the destination SMTP server
15. Optimizing the delivery of
non‑personalized newsletters
$list = array(
'peter@here.com'=>'Peter',
'paul@there.com'=>'Paulo',
'mary@overthere.com'=>'Mary'
);
$m->SetBulkMail(1);
$m->cache_body = 1;
foreach($list as $email => $name) {
$m->SetEncodedEmailHeader('To', $email, $name);
$m->Send();
}
$m->SetBulkMail(0);
17. Handling returned messages
1.Set the Return-Path message header to an
address associated with a POP3 mailbox
2.Periodically poll that mailbox using a
POP3 client class
3.Process the returned messages with the
MIME parser class
4.Unsubscribe from the newsletters the e‑mail
addresses that are returning the messages
18. Know when a message was
received
Techniques that do not always work
1.Set the Disposition-Notification-To
message header to an address to which
reception notices will be sent
2.Insert a beacon image in an HTML message
using the URL of a script that accounts
messages that are viewed by recipients
<img src=”http://www.meusite.com.br/conta.php?usuario=joao@ali.com.br”>
19. Avoid confusion with SPAM
What types of messages you should not send?
● Sent from an IP address without reverse DNS
record (PTR) or that is listed in blacklists
● The recipient e-mail addresses are in Bcc
Only with an HTML part or has invalid HTML
●
With beacon image URL that has parameters
●
Link URLs do not match anchor text URL
●
Do not pass SpamAssassin checks
●
